Appointment of corporate financial adviser. Defense Metals appointed HCF International Advisers Ltd., a London-based corporate financial advisory firm, to conduct a strategic funding review for the company’s Wicheeda Rare Earth Elements Project. The review will help Defense Metals analyze and evaluate potential funding and strategic partnership options associated with the development of the Wicheeda Project post completion of its preliminary feasibility study (PFS). HCF’s experience in financing globally recognized mining projects include its role as financial adviser to Arafura Rare Earths Limited (ASX: ARU) in the financing of the Nolan Project in Australia.
